Outgoing devserver traffic is not very balanced between devservers

Project Member Reported by davidri...@chromium.org, Feb 28 2017

Issue description

Using outgoing network traffic from devservers as a proxy for how much data is being served shows that load is not very balanced between devservers:

The difference appears to be 1.5-2x at any given time and is present even if the window is increased from 2h.

The imbalance does not bother me, by itself, unless we are also overloading some of the devservers (which we often do).

There is a general belief that we need to improve the mechanism used to resolve which devserver to use for a given test, but I don't know if there are existing bugs for that.

Richard's changes might have addressed this. It's worth looking at metrics to see if that's true.

I've done nothing that would make this better.

From what I've seen, a small but measurable fraction of provisioning
tasks do fail while interacting with the devservers in ways that are
conveniently (though possibly not always accurately) described as
"the devserver was too busy."
